About the artist, Robert Henri
1865–1929, United States
Robert Henri
A Turbulent Genesis: The Early Life of Robert HenriRobert Henri, born Robert Henry Cozad in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1865, carried within him from the outset a sense of displacement and reinvention that would profoundly shape both his life and art. His childhood was far from idyllic; shadowed by the volatile relationship between his father, John Jackson Cozad—a man of ambition and risk as a gambler and real estate developer—and his mother, Theresa Gatewood Cozad. This instability culminated in a dramatic event in 1882: a fatal shooting over a land dispute that forced the family into flight, adopting new identities to escape retribution. Young Robert became Robert Henri, a deliberate severing from a past fraught with conflict and a symbolic rebirth as an artist.
